3D IC

Semiconductor 3D ICs offer the advantages of higher performance, lower power and smaller form factor. The integration of multiple ICs on the same package or the stacking of multiple ICs comes with several verification challenges. The ANSYS RedHawk-3DIC platform gives you the ability to simulate multiple ICs modules that are integrated in a 2.5-D or 3D fashion. The RedHawk-3DIC platform can model interposers, through silicon vias (TSVs) and microbumps, including the different ICs. In addition to the IC components, an accurate model of the package can also be extracted and modeled during the power and signal integrity simulations. Typical applications of the ANSYS RedHawk-3DIC platform are:
